The Unbearable Lightness of Being

The novel "The Unbearable Lightness of Being", which (according to the back cover) is about "In a world in which lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and by fortuitous events, a world in which everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight." I am intrigued! Tucked inside this lovely novel was a note from my match, which made me even more psyched to read this book because her tastes are a lot like mine (yay Sharon Shinn). Wonderful gift!
